Ranking and mapping the contributions by overseas Chinese strategy scholars: A systematic and relevant analysis

Abstract

Jiao, Cui, Wang, and Xu (2014) developed a ranking of overseas Chines strategy scholars in terms of their contributions to the strategy research. Such a ranking is interesting not only because it provides a clear picture of the academic contributions of overseas Chinese scholars, but also because it can help the universities and scholars in mainland China to develop collaborative ties with overseas Chinese scholars in a more targeted manner.To complement and extend the work by Jiao et al. (2014), we have adopted a different, but more systematic approach to ranking the overseas Chinese strategy scholars. First, we have generated the list of overseas Chines strategy scholars by checking all of their publications in eight academic journals that are most relevant to the domain of strategy or strategic management. Though this approach is more timeconsuming, it will not miss any potentially important scholars in the analysis. Second, we have focused on the strategy-relevant articles published in the eight academic journals by the overseas Chinese scholars. To that end, we selected only the eight most strategy-relevant journals rather than covering all top-tier business Asia

Integrating organizational learning with high-performance work system and entrepreneurial orientation: a moderated mediation framework

“…Further, HPWS can moderate the mediation effect of entrepreneurial orientation in the organizational learning-performance relationship. These findings unravel the importance of human resource practices compared to technical issues, which is generally overlooked in Asian contexts (Chen et al 2016;Li et al 2015).…”

“…This research offers several implications for practice. This study firstly attaches importance to human resource management, which is usually disregarded when compared to technical improvements (Chen et al 2016;Li et al 2015). Our research suggests that HPWS can interact with organizational learning and generate synergetic effects to improve organizational performance.…”

“…HPWS is a management approach to improve business performance through systematic integration of a series of best human resource management practices (Wei and Lau 2010). However, the importance of HPWS has not been fully valued (Chen et al 2016;Li et al 2015). Successful implementation of organizational learning needs support from internal managerial approaches (Prieto and Revilla 2006).…”

Social network analysis in international business research: An assessment of the current state of play and future research directions

“…Wang, Dong, Si, and Dou (2017) APJM 'In step two, social network analysis (UCINET; Borgatti, Everett & Freeman, 2002) was used to identify the key elements in each type based on their degree centrality and betweenness centrality' (p. 467). Li, Li, Shu, and Zhou (2015) APJM 'Finally and most interestingly, we have applied the method of network analysis to the identification of the co-citation pattern among the listed overseas Chinese scholars' (p. 1086).…”
